Currently in NYC, seeking someone who has free time and can visit me. My goal is to create a lifestyle in nature, without electricity, with a loving community. To find a partner that I feel is compatible with me is not as easy as I thought it would be, but I'm open to friendships as well. The people that I know and tried to get to know are so frequently busy that it feels like I don't know anyone anymore.

If you have the time and are open to meeting with me and spending time in nature, feel free to message me.

I think, it sounds like what you are looking for is some kind person with some money to pay your way for a week long retreat and someone to travel with you?

Are you interested in a work trade situation?

So many folks are wanting to 'get out of town' it might be helpful to list things you would be willing to do as trade?

I understand your need...I picked up and left an urban environment in my early twenties and hitchhiked cross country a couple times then settled in a walk in wooded area with a partially built cabin and like minded folks...it was the right choice for me.



That's so awesome!

Yes, very interested in work trade. I can teach Russian or English to Russians. I can cook. I make great crepes! I am interested in learning more things that I can do in the country even if it means waking up at 5 am, I already wake up early. Just don't lift heavy weights and stay out of the sun between 8 am and sunset hours. But open to working in the shade.
I can teach meditation techniques and relaxation/somatic therapy techniques. I had a certificate as a meditation and relaxation coach. I'd love to help folks get offline and reconnect with nature.

I'm very sensitive to my environments and it feels like I need to move ASAP from the city. I moved once before this year from an abusive household and loud neighborhood, and now the city itself feels abusive.

Thank you for the suggestion! I suppose I'll include: in my new post, in the title, I wrote that I also need help getting to the place of choice. I'm very low on money at the moment and don't travel alone...., don't drive either.

34F, seeking a place where I can live in a cabin without electricity for free, where I can explore nature, hike, and write about my experiments with minimizing.

What and how much is truly needed for happiness?
I invite you to join me in uncovering the answer.

There's frequent construction noises and now a terrible cement smell all around the neighborhood. I feel like I want nothing to do with the city anymore, like I had enough. There was a time when it was a place to explore and go places with friends. Not anymore. I realized what truly matters to me: quiet, peace, fresh clean air, and real connections where people are never too busy for each other---all the things the city replaced.

I'm ready to leave the city right now, to try off grid living, I just need help doing this and I want to make sure that my help is kind and loving because throughout my life I mostly received help from those who would guilt trip me and tell me that I'm not doing enough. That is why I'm so cautious.

Michael, thank you for your suggestions.

Samantha, that sounds exactly like the type of place I was looking for, but so far away! Not sure how I'd get there. The other place I was considering was in Maine and I was going to get a ride, but it fell through. This place looks wonderful but about 36 hour drive and nearly $400 plane ticket 0.0.... Confused...
